Please note that because of the large volume of submissions that the BFJ receives, individual editors are not able to provide feedback on articles in advance of formal submission. Authors are directed to read the journal’s aims and scope and author guidelines to determine the suitability of their article for the journal. Upon submission, if your article is suitable an editor and peer reviewers will be assigned.
